Title: Pendragon Adventures


Book 5: Black Water


Rating: 4.5/5


Why I bought this book: I wanted to find out what happened in the next book


Review: Booby Pendragon travels to the jungles of Eelong in the 5th installment of the series. Bobby travels to the jungles of Eelong where the entire place is a rainforest. When Bobby sees it, he thinks 'paradise'. but apperances can be deciving as Bobby finds out there. The moment he gets out of the flume, he is almost immediatly attacked by a mutant dinosaur which he later finds out is called a Tang. He escapes from it by crawling into a tunnel and sees some people. Bobby tries to be friendly with them but are Quigs! About to be eaten by the Quigs, the Quigs are suddenly attacked by a large jungle cat which can talk! Bobby decides to follow the cat and discovers that Eelong is the worst possible territory for him.
One of the more interesting books in the series. Although this is the only time in the series when Bobby visits a territory which is not inhabited by humans, it is a really exciting book and you just one to keep on fliping the pages to find out what happens next.

Rating: 4/5

Review: Bobby Pendragon blasts off to a new territory in the fourth installment of this series. This time, he and Gunny, the Traveler from First Earth, goes to the territory of Veelox. After being led to First Earth by a false lead from Saint Dane, Boby is more ready then ever to face Saint Dane again. But the moment he steps onto Veelox, he comesface-to-face with Saint Dane. They are about to challenge him when suddenly, they are surrounded by a whole group of Saint Danes! Gunny launches himself at one only to find out it is a hologram. Saint Dane then activates the flume and, out of desperation, Bobby jumpes at one of the Saint Danes to catch the right one. But Saint Dane says somthing to spook Bobby so bad, Bobby lets go and Saint Dane escapes. Gunny decides to travel after Saint Dane and Bobby is left alone to explore the territory of Veelox. Luckily, the Traveler from Veelox, Aja Killan, is there and helps him to get out of the flume and Bobbyis greeted with the first sight of Veelox. One of the more sci-fi books of the series as there is alot of impossible technology but there are alot of links to the Earth territories as well.
